Procedure

Combine tert-butyl 4-(4-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl)piperidine-1-carboxylate (5.84 g, 17.40 mmol) and potassium hydroxide (5.91 g, 6.0 eq) (freshly powdered) in dimethyl sulfoxide (30 mL). Heat the reaction mixture to 45° C. under nitrogen. After 15 minutes, add 2-(2-bromoethoxy)tetrahydro-2H-pyran (2.90 mL, 1.1 eq). Continue to heat the reaction overnight. Add water and extract with ethyl acetate. Wash the organics with saturated aqueous sodium chloride. Dry the organics over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filter, and concentrate in vacuo. Purify by silica gel chromatography, eluting with hexanes to 50% ethyl acetate in hexanes to ethyl acetate to 10% methanol in ethyl acetate, to give the title compound as a thick yellow oil (6.94 g, 86%). MS (ES) m/z=464 [M]+.
